I am so sorry I may not be able to attend her visitation today due to my work schedule. I truly am greatful for her involvement in the lives of my brothers. She embraced two young boys that lost almost everything and now are two young men with futures that included titles of husband, father, uncle, grandfather, employee, friend. I know I told you before but once again: Thank you Judy Trentman, you have my sincere gratitude.

To the Trentman Family and the Fischer Family we wish to express our deepest sympathies upon hearing of the unexpected passing of Judy. She was a memorable woman who always smiled and had a kind word to say whenever we crossed paths. I now understand how difficult it must of been for her since Gary passed. I'm glad she had family to rely on to sustain her as she moved forward. Now she rests in the next realm with those she loved and had to make the journey before her. She and Gary were extraordinary individuals who fostered children who unwillingly found themselves without guidance, stability and love. When the children they cared for remember them fondly and live proper, productive lives by being kind, compassionate, trustworthy, loving adults to those around them it honors the memory of Judy and Gary. It leaves a legacy that changes the world for the better. Though your hearts hurt intensely remember her courage and compassion and share the miracle of how wonderful your life are because someone loved you enough to steer you in the direction of achievable possibilities. Remember to stay connected to each other and gather together because as you do you keep them both alive through the stories and memories you pass on to your children. That's immortality.
